My interests vary from time to time but I'm always involved in some form of art creation: AI art generation, digital graphics, sketching, acrylic/or watercolors, mixed media art, photography, quilting, zentangling, handmade cards, etc, I move from one to another, back and forth between different artistic genres. Here's My Art Bag of the most current things I'm up to. Take a look and leave a message... I'd love to hear what you think.

Art Journal Journey: What Makes You Happy?

Our prompt this week at Art Journal Journey is "What Makes You Happy?"   My Dog, Charlie and my Hens, Annie, Betsy, Coco and Daisy make me happy every day, all day long.  


Here's a real photo of them all, waiting patiently for treats before the hens walk up their ramp to roost in the henhouse for the night.  The hens start jumping up at the screen door if I take too long.

Our Midweek Muse: View from My Window

The prompt this week at Our Midweek Muse is "View from My Window."  This isn't exactly my window, but I do live in the high desert and this scene is from the high desert.  


Flocks of Sandhill Cranes do fly overhead in season, and Roadrunners and Gambel's Quail families were in my yard before I rescued my dog.  And the Vulture?  Well...  When I leave a window or door open, I do get vultures, but they are much smaller.   ðŸª°ðŸª°ðŸª°ðŸª°ðŸª° 😊

Digital Whisper - Drive-in Movie

Our prompt this week at Digital Whisper is "Drive-in Movie."    

Here is my artwork, the Movie Poster, a Ticket to the show and a piece of the film from the reel.  





I loved Audrey Hepburn when I was a teenager and tried to look like her, same hair styles, lipstick, etc.  Breakfast at Tiffany's was my favorite movie for a long, long time.  In fact, the music from the movie, Moon River, was the theme of my high school Senior Ball.  It's kind of sweet to have her starring in my own personal movie!
